A few moments ago,
my computer crashed
and I lost a poem
I had been writing since dawn.
Why did it vanish?
Where did it go?
Possession
is a comfortable illusion,
but uncertainty
is the true face of God;
we own nothing in this life,
not even our words.

God ? seriously? I 'd love to discuss this God notion some time
ReplyDeleteGod is a metaphor. Like all metaphors, you can choose to believe it or not. Failing that, you have to choose another metaphor, because metaphors are all that there is...
